Pine Sap Leaking From Wound On Pine Tree, making pine resin

How To Make Pine Resin Glue - The Pine Tree is amazingly useful. First of all, the entire tree is edible…the bark, the needles, the pine cones, etc… The roots can be used as cordage. You can make pine needle tea which is rich in vitamins. You can also use the limbs as building materials and the pine boughs as bedding. Pine sap also makes excellent fuel for camp lamps and fire starting. The subject of this post, however, is how to use PINE SAP to make an all natural and very durable glue.

Feed yourself for free: the 12 Survival Plants -- the usual suspects, but with recipes (!)

"Feed yourself for free: the 12 'Survival Plants' Part 1 by John Yeoman | Friday, 15th February 2013 While there are hundreds of edible foods to be found in the wild, just 12 plants will provide enough sustenance for you to live on.[...] The advantage these 12 have over their 400 edible wild cousins is abundance, resilience, versatility and ease of recognition."

Use 3 to 5 tea lights under a slow cooker pot / crockpot to heat your room. I have tried flowerpot, plantpot heaters and this is way better. Throws out a lot more heat, doesn't smell like some clay ones tend to do, plus you don't have to mess about with multiple pots or nuts and bolts. I used a small crock 1.5ltr which gave out loads of heat. Give it a try. You will be surprised how well it works. Ideal if you have power cuts / power outages.

Perhaps one of the most useful components of a survival kit. Can be used in an emergency to build shelter, or for a multitude of other uses. Bu You can also carry a supply of emergency paracord with you at all times with Survival Bracelets.

Last week, I received a call from some friends who provide survival training for a branch of the Department of Justice. They were mid-experiment, trying to desalinate water with field expedient gear. Short of building a still as featured on the show Moonshiners, they couldn’t figure out how to achieve the necessary controlled water condensation. Their results were hit and miss, as many of my experiments with this technique have been. I have built several pressure canner stills (for water, don’t get too excited!) and some tea kettle water distillers, but these large pieces gear aren’t going to fit in anybody’s backpack or survival kit.

This would work on patio fire pit s well .Good to know when camping: Cotton swabs dipped in wax become instant campfire starters. Lightweight. Great for backpackers.

Camping Idea! D.I.Y Cotton swabs dipped in wax become instant campfire starters! Not long ago my friend KP gave me a baggie filled with cotton pads coated with wax that resembled wafers. KP makes and uses them for fire starter or tinder. I had to try them out and was very impressed with the simplicity and effectiveness of these wafers. The wafers can be used
